Hi,
I am tempted to start D programming but for me it is crucrial
to be able to parallelize for-loops as can be done with openMP
for C/C++ (mainly @pragma omp parallel for, @pragma omp
critical).
I have already seen the std.parallelism library but I'm unsure
whether it can provide me with the same functionality.
Thanks
It can. Here's an example from the docs of parallelising a simple
for loop:
auto logs = new double[10_000_000];
foreach(i, ref elem; taskPool.parallel(logs, 100))
{
elem = log(i + 1.0);
}
This creates a pool of workers that each perform 100 iterations
of the loop body in parallel.
